This 1999 Jaguar XK8 convertible is finished in Topaz Metallic over Oatmeal leather upholstery and wood veneer trim. The car is powered by a 4.0-liter V8 paired with a five-speed automatic transmission, and additional equipment includes a beige convertible soft top, bright 17″ Lamina alloy wheels, fog lights, power-adjustable front seats, cruise control, and an aftermarket head unit. The oxygen sensors were replaced in preparation for the sale, the battery and lower control arm bushings were replaced in August 2022, and the serpentine belt was changed in November 2021. This XK8 has 69k miles following its recent acquisition by the selling dealer, and is now offered at no reserve with a clean Florida title.
The car is finished in Topaz Metallic (SEC) and features a beige convertible soft top as well as fog lights, a power antenna, and polished exhaust outlets. The Carfax report notes damage to the front and left front in a September 2016 entry.
This is a relist after the vehicle was previously sold on BaT in October 2024 and the winning bidder failed to follow through with their commitment to purchase. This was not due to any fault with the vehicle. The winner’s participation on BaT has been restricted and their buyer’s fee was not refunded.
Bright 17″ Lamina alloy wheels are mounted with Kumho tires. The car is equipped with traction and stability control, and stopping power is provided by four-wheel ventilated disc brakes. The lower control arm bushings were changed in August 2022.
The seating surfaces are upholstered in Oatmeal leather (AGD), and the cabin features a color-coordinated lower dashboard and door panels as well as wood veneer trim. Other amenities include power-adjustable front seats with memory settings for the driver as well as automatic climate control, cruise control, and an aftermarket head unit. Imperfect upholstery and cracks in the wood trim can be seen in the gallery below.
The wood-trimmed steering wheel frames a 170-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 6,750-rpm redline as well as gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 69k miles.
The 4.0-liter AJ V8 was factory rated at 290 horsepower and 290 lb-ft of torque. The oxygen sensors were replaced in preparation for the sale, the battery was replaced in August 2022, and the serpentine belt was changed in November 2021.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a ZF five-speed automatic transmission.
The Carfax report notes the aforementioned damage.
